Son of Norway’s crown princess arrested on new allegations ahead of his rape trial

Norway's Royal Family Face Growing Scandal as Son of Crown Princess Faces Rape Trial

The Norwegian royal family is dealing with a growing crisis after the eldest son of Crown Princess Mette-Marit was arrested on new allegations ahead of his trial. Marius Borg Høiby, 31, is accused of multiple counts including rape, assault, and violating a restraining order.

Høiby's arrest comes just days before he faces trial on charges that have already cast a shadow over the royal family. The case has sparked widespread concern and criticism, with many calling for greater accountability within the palace.

The Crown Prince, Haakon, who is Høiby's stepbrother, will not be attending court during the proceedings. However, he emphasized that as a citizen of Norway, Høiby has the same rights and responsibilities as all others.

The royal family has faced scrutiny in recent months over its connections to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Crown Princess Mette-Marit has acknowledged that she made "poor judgment" for having contact with Epstein, and expressed her "deep sympathy and solidarity" with his victims.

Høiby's defense team claims that he denies all charges of sexual abuse and violence. However, the new allegations have raised questions about Høiby's past behavior and whether he has a history of violent or abusive conduct.

The royal family's reputation is at risk due to these scandals, which may damage their public image and erode trust among Norwegians. As the trial progresses, it remains to be seen how the palace will respond to these allegations and what measures they will take to address them.
 
This scandal is getting out of hand 🤯! I mean, a member of the royal family accused of rape? That's some serious stuff right there 😱. It's understandable that the Crown Prince won't be attending court, but it's still a huge blow to the royal family's reputation. They've already been dealing with this Epstein thing, and now this? It's like one bad apple spoiling the whole bunch 🍎.

I'm not saying Marius Borg Høiby is guilty or anything (he's got to be innocent until proven otherwise 🤔), but if he is... well, that's just devastating. And the fact that there are new allegations? That's just nasty 💔. I hope they get to the bottom of this and do justice for all parties involved. It's time for some serious accountability within the palace 👑.
 
u guys are gonna be talking about this for ages 😂 like seriously tho, can we please focus on the layout of the news article tho? its kinda all over the place 🤯 "Crown Princess Mette-Marit has acknowledged that she made 'poor judgment' for having contact with Epstein" should be a subheading or something 👇. and what's up with the transition to Høiby's arrest in the middle of the paragraph? it feels like a non-sequitur 🤔 anyway, on a more serious note, this whole thing is super concerning 💔 and i think its only natural that the royal family would want to address these allegations ASAP ⏰.
 
Ugh 🤦‍♂️, can't believe what's going on with Marius Borg Høiby... like, one minute he's a member of the royal family, and the next, he's facing rape trial 🚔👮. And now, his stepbrother Crown Prince Haakon is just standing by, saying "oh, you know, we're all equal citizens" 🤷‍♂️... but, like, isn't that a bit too easy for him?

And what's up with the royal family trying to downplay this whole thing? Mette-Marit says she made "poor judgment" when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein... poor judgment is like, an understatement 🙄. And now these new allegations are casting a dark shadow over their reputation... I'm just worried about how this is gonna affect the monarchy in Norway 💔. Can't they just take responsibility for their own actions? 🤷‍♂️
 
🤕 This is just disgusting, a total nightmare for the royal family! How could Marius do this to so many people? 🚫 I feel bad for Crown Princess Mette-Marit, she's already dealing with her own Epstein scandal... I hope Høiby gets justice, but at what cost to his own life and future? The royal family's reputation is already taking a hit, let's just say I'm not holding out much hope for them to bounce back from this one 😔.
 
I'm literally so shook by this whole thing 😱. I mean, as a student, we're always taught about the importance of personal responsibility and respect for others, right? It's crazy that Marius Borg Høiby is facing all these serious charges and it's like, how did this even happen?! 🤯 My friends and I would be getting in so much trouble if we were caught doing something like that on campus. At least, our school has a pretty strict disciplinary system in place... the royal family just kinda... lets it slide? 🙄 Anyway, it's gotta be super tough for Crown Princess Mette-Marit to deal with this as her son is facing trial. I hope she gets some support from her husband and stuff.
 
Ugh, this is super worrying 🤕. I mean, as a wellness guru, I'm all about self-awareness and taking responsibility for our actions, and it sounds like Marius Borg Høiby needs to do some serious soul-searching ASAP 💡. The fact that he's denying all charges and his defense team is claiming that he has no history of violent or abusive conduct just doesn't sit right with me 🙅‍♂️. I think we need to be calling out systemic issues here, not just individual ones 🤝. Can you imagine how the Crown Princess must be feeling, having made contact with Jeffrey Epstein in the first place? It's just so... complicated 💔. Anyway, I hope Marius gets some proper support and therapy or whatever he needs – our mental health is at stake here! 🌿💖
 
Ugh, this is getting out of hand 🤯. The royal family needs to step up their game. I mean, Crown Princess Mette-Marit is trying to own her mistake by saying she made "poor judgment" with Epstein, but that's not gonna cut it in the eyes of the public. And now Marius Borg Høiby is accused of rape? That's a whole different level of serious stuff 🚨.

I think they need to take responsibility for their actions and address these allegations ASAP. The fact that Crown Prince Haakon won't be attending court shows he's aware it's getting too hot to handle 🔥. They gotta figure out what measures are gonna be taken to prevent this kind of thing from happening again in the future.

It's like, I get that people make mistakes, but when you're a member of the royal family, you've got a platform and a responsibility to use it wisely 💼. If they don't shape up their act, they risk losing public trust forever 🤖.
 
😬 this is getting super messy for the Norwegian royal family 🤯 Marius Borg Høiby's situation is really concerning, but you know what's even more worrying? The fact that his stepbrother Crown Prince Haakon isn't attending court during the trial 🙅‍♂️. I mean, I get it, he wants to maintain some distance, but at the same time, doesn't he have a responsibility to support his sister and nephew in this difficult time? 🤔 And what's up with the royal family's connections to Jeffrey Epstein again? It's like, really unfortunate that Crown Princess Mette-Marit had contact with him in the first place... poor judgment, y'know? 🙈 Anyway, gotta keep an eye on this trial and see how it all plays out 👀. Maybe we'll get some real accountability from the palace soon 💯
 
This scandal with Marius Borg Høiby is getting out of control 😱 I just don't get why these rich people think they're above the law. Like, if you're going to be part of the royal family, you've got to act like a decent human being, right? Instead, it seems like everyone's too afraid to speak up or hold them accountable.

It's also weird that Crown Prince Haakon isn't attending the court proceedings - what's he hiding? And Mette-Marit is just apologizing for her own mistakes with Epstein... but what about Høiby? Shouldn't she be held responsible too?

The royal family needs to do some serious damage control here or their reputation is going to be ruined. I'm not surprised the Norwegian public is upset - who wouldn't be? 🤦‍♂️
 
🚨😬 The Norwegian royal family is already dealing with so much drama & scandal... now this latest news about Marius Borg Høiby's rape trial is just another nail in the coffin 🤕. It's not just that he's accused of some serious stuff, but also that his stepbrother Crown Prince Haakon isn't even going to attend court? 🙅‍♂️ That says a lot about how they're handling this whole situation. And let's not forget that the royal family has already faced heat for their ties to Jeffrey Epstein... poor judgment is an understatement 😳. This trial is going to be super tough for them, and it'll be interesting to see how they respond to all these allegations & what measures they take to rebuild trust 🤔👑
 
man this just shows us that even with all the privilege and power, people are still human and can make mistakes... like, the royal family's trying to maintain this image of perfection but it's just not possible... i mean, we all know that everyone's got their own demons and flaws... and now it's like, they're facing these accusations and trying to figure out how to navigate this situation... it's like, accountability is everything, right? but at the same time, you gotta remember that people deserve a second chance... or like, some kinda process to rectify things... i don't know, maybe this is just an opportunity for them to learn from their mistakes and become better people... but for now, it's all about how they respond to these allegations 💔
 
This case is really tough to watch 🤕. I feel bad for Marius Borg Høiby, he's got a lot of people rooting for him. It's like, everyone makes mistakes, right? Even the Crown Prince is trying to stay out of it and not judge his stepbrother too harshly 🤝. And Mette-Marit was friends with Epstein, that's some pretty bad luck 😔.

But at the same time, I get why people are upset about this. Rape is a really serious crime, and if someone's got multiple counts against them... it's just not okay 💔. The palace needs to figure out how they're gonna handle all of this and make things right 💯. Maybe Marius gets a fair trial and proves his innocence? Or maybe the allegations are true and he's gotta face the consequences 🤞.

One thing that's stuck with me is Mette-Marit saying she feels "deep sympathy and solidarity" with Epstein's victims... that does seem like a pretty big misstep 💔. But we don't know all the facts, so let's not jump to conclusions just yet 😐.
 
Ugh, this is getting out of hand... like, I get it, everyone makes mistakes, but come on, Marius Borg Høiby's got a whole history of alleged abuse going on... and now he's trying to deny all charges? That's just not gonna fly. The fact that the Crown Prince isn't attending court is pretty shady, imo. I mean, he should be there supporting his stepbrother or at least showing some solidarity. But nope, he's playing it cool and saying everyone's equal... yeah right. And what about Mette-Marit? She made contact with Epstein, that's a whole different level of messed up. You can't just dismiss that as "poor judgment" either. The royal family needs to get their act together and figure out how to handle these situations properly. Maybe they should be more transparent about Høiby's past... or better yet, have an independent investigation done. This is all just a PR nightmare 😩
 
OMG 🤯 this is so not good for the Norwegian royal family's rep 🤕 Marius Borg Høiby is 31 and already facing rape trial 😱 that's insane. I feel bad for Crown Princess Mette-Marit, she should've known better than to associate with Epstein 🙄 at least she acknowledged her poor judgment 💯 but it's not just about her, the whole family is getting dragged into this mess 🤝

And can you believe Haakon won't be attending court? 🤔 that shows how serious things are. I think he should be there to show his support for his sister and nephew 👪, even if it's just as a citizen of Norway.

The palace has been trying to address these scandals, but it's not easy when you're dealing with allegations like rape 😢 and violating restraining orders. They need to take responsibility for their actions and ensure that justice is served 🤝 I hope they can get through this difficult time without too much damage to their reputation 💔
 
OMG, this is getting out of hand 🤯! I mean, I get that we're all human and we can make mistakes, but come on, Marius Borg Høiby's got some serious skeletons in his closet 😳. The fact that he's accused of rape and assault... it's just not okay, you know? And now with these new allegations popping up, I'm like, totally concerned 🤔. I don't think Crown Prince Haakon should be let off the hook so easily, though - as a member of the royal family, he's got a responsibility to speak out against this and show that they're taking it seriously 💁‍♀️. And can we talk about how Mette-Marit's whole Epstein thing is still hanging over them? Like, what were they thinking?! Poor judgment is one thing, but this is on a whole different level 🙄. Anyway, the palace needs to get their act together and figure out what they're gonna do about these scandals ASAP ⏰!
 
Ugh, this is getting too intense for the royal family 🤯👑. I mean, I get that everyone makes mistakes, but a rape trial? That's just a whole different level of serious 🔥. And with Crown Princess Mette-Marit having connections to Epstein, I'm worried about how she handled things all these years... it's like they're trying to sweep everything under the rug 🚮.

And what's up with Haakon not attending court? Doesn't he have some say in what's going on? It seems like the whole family is just too connected and insulated 💼. This whole thing feels like a PR nightmare, and I'm not sure how they're gonna get out of it without losing all their fans 🤷‍♀️.
 
OMG u guys!!!! 😱😨 I'm dyin over here!!! The royal fam is gettin drama and I am HERE FOR IT!!! 👑💁‍♀️ I know it's not all rainbows and unicorns, but I still love 'em!!! 💖 Mette-Marit's already apologized for her Epstein connection, that's like, so brave of her!! 💪 And now Marius is facin a rape trial... 🤯 I don't know what to think anymore!!! 😩 But one thing's for sure - the royal fam needs to get their act together and show us they're doin somethin to stop this BS!!! 👑💥 They need to be more than just pretty faces, u feel me?! 💁‍♀️👀 I'm literally on edge waitin for that trial to start... 🤯 is this how we really wanna know about Marius?! 😱 let's see how they handle it... 👑💬
 
omg this is like soooo messed up!!! Marius Borg Høiby's case is like, seriously tarnishing the royal family's rep 🤕💔 he's got a restraining order against him for god sake!!! how did no one see this coming? 😱 and now Crown Princess Mette-Marit's all like "poor judgment" but like, what about poor victims?! 🙅‍♀️ they deserve so much better than some entitled royal dude who thinks he can just get away with whatever he wants 💁‍♂️ meanwhile the whole country is looking at them like what's going on over there? like, accountability now would be nice 👀
 
This whole thing is really concerning 🤕. I mean, you've got a member of the royal family being accused of some pretty serious crimes, and the crown prince's response is just to emphasize that Høiby has the same rights as everyone else? It feels like he's not taking this seriously enough.

And then there's the whole Epstein thing - it's already raised so many questions about the palace's judgment. I think they need to be more transparent about their connections and how they handled things with him. The fact that Mette-Marit is saying she made "poor judgment" just feels like a cop-out 🙄.

It's not just Høiby's own behavior that's the problem, it's the culture of silence and privilege that seems to be surrounding him. If this was any ordinary person, they'd likely be facing serious consequences long ago. But because he's a member of the royal family, everyone's just getting all bent out of shape 🤷‍♀️.

I think the palace needs to take some real steps to address these allegations and make sure that Høiby is held accountable for his actions. And not just for his own sake, but for the sake of the rest of us who are watching this unfold with growing unease 😬
